Exceptions to new blocking policy don't function correctly
153.Ob13
Settings/Privacy and Security/Enhanced tracking selections/Advanced settings/Manage exceptions is not functioning properly. Every site that I have saved as an exception initially fails to do two things when the site is loaded. First, the site blocks content as if it is not an exception, and then it refuses to completely load the page. This requires me me to X-force the page to finish loading, and then I have to refresh the page by loading it a second time before the exception operates properly. This behavior is precisely the same on every exception website I have entered. Definitely some bugs at work here.

I see no ETP uplifts during the Beta 13 cycle: whattrainisitnow.com/beta
If you updated from an older beta where you recall this functioning as expected, would you be able to check your update history from settings what version it was? Thanks.
I use Firefox x64 DE exclusively ( I know they changed the name..;)) and I had set the system to update automatically, so whichever build came before this one is when I didn't have this problem at all---but this should make it easier: The problems didn't start until the build was installed that started blocking X posts embedded in web pages. It was the first time I had ever seen this in Firefox, so this should not be difficult to trace, I should think...;)
I monkeyed around with the settings until I decided on all default settings except entering the exception sites in the Manage Exceptions option. The exclusions aren't properly working for me--until I stop the page from loading and then refresh the page, only then does the exception work, and the X and tracker blocking is disabled.
Hope this helps--it seems fairly straightforward to me as the exceptions do not work as they are supposed to--I'm certain I should not have to reload the page before the exceptions I've saved take effect.
If this won't work, then I can always set the browser to ignore blocking X and trackers universally, as that works fine and is the way the earlier builds worked. The new tracker and X blockers are annoying, but I don't mind them on web sites I do not visit on a regular basis. I think the option/feature has merit, and the exclusions work, but only after reloading the page. Is this any clearer?...;)
Using Xitter as a reference in time is unfortunate as that's apparently a change over at their side — they seemed to deploy a massive 3rdparty–dependent update across their complete app starting to roll out few days ago.
So this has no correlation to Firefox patches. This was broken by Xitter release.

Developer Edition is the same as the Beta channel but with additional developer features.
Release < Beta (b#) < Nightly (a1)
